Jim Fenwick is a UK-based photographer known for his documentary approach and evocative storytelling. Growing up across Nigeria, Bangladesh, Italy, and Britain he developed a deep curiosity about people and place. Creativity has always been his outlet, first through painting, eventually leading him to photography.
His work explores themes of identity, endurance, and resilience, often focusing on the unseen narratives within everyday moments.
His images challenge perception and provoke reflection, blending quiet storytelling with cinematic techniques, controlled palettes, and precise composition to deepen their impact. Jim’s work has placed him in difficult situations, but he believes that trust flows both ways: when you approach people and places with respect, you receive something deeper in return.
This year, his series Wildfires of Palermo is nominated for the Prix Pictet.
